Well, I did scan the thread to see if this had been discussed, and I
overlooked that message. But there was no reply to that message, so
it's not clear whether this was just Robert's opinion or consensus; in
fact we now have exactly two votes on it (mine and Robert's).

I think one person casting an opinion on one aspect does not set that
aspect in stone.

somebody make percentages logarithmic while I wasn't looking?"
